Money for food (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bread

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'money' is the first definition.
(bread is slang for money)

'for food' is the second definition.
(bread is a type of food)

(Other definitions for bread that I've seen before include "Lolly - basic food" , "Eg, loaf or rolls" , "Baked food; money" , "Baker's product" , "Loaves" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Mirror.
